I am 12 weeks today and I went back to the doctor. She was nice enough to do another ultrasound - partly because they didn't have any film last time and partly for my peace of mind since I'm "at risk". Everything looks good. We saw the heartbeat, the spine, the umbilical cord and the forming placenta. It also waved at us a little bit. Hunter says that the baby looks like a penguin! Oh, and it measures 6.5 cm, which is just right about where it should be or maybe slightly longer. It is still too early to tell the gender, but when I go back in 4 weeks we might be able to tell if we do an ultrasound. (I kind of doubt that we'll have the option, though.)


You're seeing the head, the torso, and the knees - the baby's legs are crossed.

Here's a better shot of the legs:
